New York-based Tiedemann Wealth Management has named Daniel S. Sternberg to its board of managers.

Sternberg, who was a partner at Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton from 1988 through 2011, is now senior counsel to the firm.

“Dan brings to our board vast experience with a broad range of U.S. and international corporate transactional and governance issues,” said Craig Smith, President of Tiedemann Wealth Management. “While Dan has been a friend of the firm for years, we are particularly excited that, upon his retirement as a partner at Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton at the end of 2011, he chose to make Tiedemann a central part of the next phase of his professional career.”

Founded in 1999, Tiedemann Wealth Management provides wealth management services to families, trusts, foundations and endowments. The firm currently works with approximately 100 clients and advises them on over $6.5 billion of investable assets. In addition to its New York headquarters, the firm has offices in Palm Beach and Los Angeles.
